Each domain controller in a Windows 2000/2003 Active Directory domain has a writable copy of the directory so there is no need for clustering. If DC1 dies another DC will take over all requests. This gets more interesting if you have down-level - NT4 - domains, but you can always seize any FSMO roles the DC that died had if you can't bring it back up.
